Its figures are also listed under Noritz NR662-OD-NG.

Certified figures

Flow at a 67°F rise
3.6gallons per minute
UEF
0.82Uniform energy factor

Flow where you live

A bigger rise from colder incoming water leaves the heater with less flow.

Cold water
Cold water must be at least 10°F colder than the hot water setting.
Flow estimate
The estimate uses the lowest certified flow among the listed models. It is about 3.4 gal/min at a 70°F rise.

Flow limits

  • The estimate excludes the flow needed to turn the heater on, heat lost in pipes, and installation.
  • Cold water from a well or long pipe run can differ from the temperature you enter.
  • Without a stated flow limit, estimates for warmer water may exceed the heater’s actual flow.

UEF is the uniform energy factor. A dash means the model has no such figure.

It warms 3.6 gallons per minute of water from 58°F to 125°F in the test. The median flow among gas tankless models is 4.8 gallons per minute. Its flow at a 67°F rise trails 409 of the 487 gas tankless models.

It was not listed as ENERGY STAR certified on Oct 19, 2026. In tests, 82% of the energy it uses ends up as hot water (UEF 0.82). The daily hot water use in the test, called its draw pattern, was medium. Among 77 gas tankless models on its draw pattern, 30 have a higher UEF. On its draw pattern, its UEF is also the median gas tankless UEF. Of the energy it spends heating water, 84% ends up in it (its recovery efficiency).

All of its test figures are shared by 3 other basic models. Of those, one or more are under the Noritz, Ranein, and THERMALUX brands. For the full group, see the Noritz NR662-OD-NG.

It may qualify for one rebate program if it meets terms its figures do not show.
